Richard-
Strange. I guess it's time to compare what we're looking at. I'm running on a Sun Ultra-60 w/ SunOS 5.8. I downloaded openssl-0.9.6d.tar.gz from http://www.openssl.org/source/. I then ran the following command: ./config --prefix=/usr/local/openssl-0.9.6d \ --openssldir=/usr/local/openssl-0.9.6d The output from that was: Operating system: sun4u-whatever-solaris2 ./config: test: unknown operator (GCC) The config script is dated "Mar 15 08:47" (which I think is 15:47 GMT, since I'm in California and we're on Daylight Savings Time). Its size is 17352 bytes. The line that errors out for me is line 613: if [ "$OUT" = solaris-sparcv9-gcc -a $GCCVER -lt 28 ] I put the following in front of it to see the value of GCCVER: echo "GCCVER = \"$GCCVER\""; exit and got this output: Operating system: sun4u-whatever-solaris2 GCCVER = "gcc (GCC) 31" With the value of GCCVER having embedded whitespace, you can see why "test" would give up on it. I hope this helps. Let me know if you need anything else from me. -Allen Richard Levitte - VMS Whacker via RT wrote: > > In message <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on Thu, 13 Jun 2002 14:52:11 -0700, >Allen Hopkins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> said: > > allenh> I'm afraid this was not a fix.
